This is beautiful..thank you so very much for sharing. I love video of brown capuchins and there is very little of it on UA-cam (of them in a zoo or the wild as compared to other types of monkeys). also something very interesting...the adult monkey that is grooming the mother begins to suckle at her breast at 01:45...notice just prior to that he starts to do it then moves over to look at her in the face to see if she will allow it (I guess) and then goes ahead and suckles for a few moments..at first I wasn't sure if that was what he was doing but after watching it several times and looking at where her breast is located and the fact that his mouth and jaw are moving as though suckling I am sure of it.. Maybe it is one of her older offspring but that is still pretty unusual behavior for brown capuchins.
